Here is today's WW post.
So I was all excited about the good food day I was about to have. I packed my left over venison spaghetti, a baggie with a piece of garlic bread and then headed out. Well not until I got Parker up, gave him an unexpected bath, got him dressed and into his coat. After all of that, we left.
I ate one waffle on the way to daycare/work and decided that I don't deserve to starve until lunch! I went to the grocery store and got a bowl of cut, ready-to-eat peaches that were actually 2 points according to the nutritional info. I also grabbed a few bananas yum!
I got to work and got on WW online to track my points for breakfast and then went on ahead and put lunch in to. I was shocked. After my healthy (or so I thought) breakfast and my left over lunch I only had 11 points left! That’s all I had for dinner, a dinner I was unsure of. We are eating at my father in law's house tonight so while it will be delicious, I have no idea how many points it will be.
I decided to do the right thing. I threw out my beloved garlic bread. If you knew me you would know that I love bread. When we go out to eat, you'll often hear me categorize each place by their bread. Point being, throwing bread away is a NO NO for me. DON'T WASTE THE BREAD FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!
Ok so I'm being dramatic but you get the picture. I chunked my bread -tear- and I will live without it! but I still have to figure out the points or a safe portion size for dinner tonight.
Oh and I cheated this morning and weighed, I'm at 155 so I reeeally don't want to **** it up for a piece of garlic bread.
If you're going to do WW, you really really need to plan out your day's food and points. Complete pain in the ass at first, but once you're used to it, and know offhand what points the every day foods you eat are, it'll be a lot easier.
ReplyDeleteOnly learned my lesson on that one after having to resort to "zero points" foods (read: soup broths) for supper a couple of times.
Yeah I did that.
ReplyDeleteI am normally the one who does the grocery list so that won't be hard. For some reason Michael made the list for this week lol and I've had to do without part of the meal because I was out of points.
